MORAINE LOCUST 
Fast-Growing Seedless Shade Tree 
(Plant Patent No. 836) 
This amazing new shade tree has so many outstanding 
qualities, we are indeed proud to offer it to our customers. 
It is a rapid growing tree that succeeds well on a wide 
range of soils. It withstands drought and extremes of 
temperature and it is not susceptible to disease. Unlike 
many fast. growing trees, it is long-lived and extremely 
hardy. And it does not produce seed pods to clutter up 
the lawn. 
The Moraine Locust is a beautiful tree, similar in form to 
the American Elm. It makes a wide spreading growth. 
The finely cut foliage provides good shade, yet allows 
enough sunlight to filter through to promote healthy lawn 
growth. It is a desirable tree for the average yard where 
some shade is desirable, and equally valuable for tree 
lawns and parkways. We recommend it highly — here is 
a tree that will give a lifetime of pleasure. 4 to 5 ft., 
$3.00 each; 6 to 7 ft., $5.00 each, express collect.
